Noisy Dometic Refrigerator Fans
Prior to our current 5TH wheel RV we had a Dometic refrigerator in that unit and it exceeded our expectations. Everything in the refrigerator was cool or cold and the temperature remained in the 33-34 degrees range on the hottest of days. NO FAN NOISE
Last November we purchased a new 5TH wheel RV and this unit also has a Dometic refrigerator model DM2862lbFX and it does maintain the temperature in the 33 to 34 degree ranges also. But on hot days evidently there are two fans in the unit that are activated when the temperature reaches a certain level. These fans continue to run well into the night and we can even hear them in our bedroom. Needless to say they are really noisy when one is setting in the living room area. So I took the RV to the dealer told him about the fans being extremely noisy and the RV dealer replaced the fans. Well the new fans are still very noisy with a medium to upper pitch sound. Again easily heard in our bedroom during the night until they shut down.
Is there a solution to the noisy fan problem? I can not understand how Dometic would let a product like this be marketed to the RV industry. Has anyone else experience the noisy Dometic Fans in their unit.
